So halloween is just around the corner and I'd like to see some of your decorations please.

We had a halloween party on the weekend so here's some of mine that I had out

My BIL made me some tombstones, these were placed in the entrance of our house so you had to walk through them to enter the party

I made some scrappy curtains, but didn't get a night shot of these. They look better at night as the orange light from the dude above glowed onto them and the windows are black

LOVE this pumpkin!! What a great face! The extent of our decorations is window stickers...
 
And WHERE is the photo of you in the black tutu then hhmmmmmm???! :waiting

Those tombstones are wonderful, I love the fun names!! We've done nothing at all so far, not even carved a pumpkin - need to do that tomorrow!!
 
ummmmmmmm black tutu? What that.................? KAYE are you withholding vital photos from us?
 
Oh how fun! We don't do much decorating and we always wait until Halloween day to carve our pumpkins so they are fresh for trick or treating. :) My husband always lets the kids do one on their own and he does a really fun elaborate one. Can't wait to see what this years will be!
 
We don't decorate too much around here either. We paint pumpkins rather than carve them at the moment. I know I am a terrible mom - but mine are still little and we are usually out running around during Halloween so we don't decorate as to not attract a lots of treaters b/c we are usually not home. I know when the kids are a little older we will decorate but for now it is just little crafty stuff and we keep it to ourselves. LOL!
 
the black tutu photos will never see the light of day!! I also discovered that wearing wings is quite dangerous, I didn't allow for the extra width as I went through doorways or by people and kept crashing into them.
 
Oh I can relate to the wings thing... We were at a restaurant last year for Halloween and our server was dressed as a butterfly. Gorgeous costume and beautiful makeup - the whole nine. But her wing span was not fitting for the restaurant environment. She kept bumping into people passing by and when she would turn around she would flick people seated at tables. Poor thing - I felt so bad for her - but my kids loved every minute of the show. :giggle
 
Great pictures! :) Love the tombstones.

We're getting some decorations up today... will have to take pics and share later. :)
 
I will get some pictures of our outdoor decorations as soon as the wind and rain die down here!
 
Oh dear Trista, wings would not be good in a restaurant that is for sure!
 
We don't do decorating here intact Finlay wasn't really interested this year and it's usually him who loves Halloween
 
Oooh... those gravestone are AWESOME!!! I want one.
I'll try to take some pics over the weekend.
 
We didn't decorate at all this year...the boys were VERY upset with us!!!! It was just a crazy fall with soccer!
